I needed a designer to help me bring my vision for my startup, Musicians Playground, to life. Sashya and team started with a meeting to understand my brand at length and the goals I had for the project. They produced a floor plan that would maximize efficiency of our space and meet the requirements of our brand. From flooring, to paint, to electrical - they handled all aspects of the project in great detail and with the utmost organization. The thing I am most appreciative of (besides our absolutely stunning space) - is that Sashya and team supported me in many ways they were not contractually obliged to. For example, pushing for savings in places I wouldn't have tried, managing contractors (one needs a part time job just for that), being resourceful with the money we had, and emotionally supportive of the process we were undergoing --- it all made for a journey I will be forever grateful for! If you are looking for a "small team that does big things" kind of experience - this is your place and these are your people! Thanks so much Sashya and team for everything! We can't wait to open a second location with you!

I hired Andra B. D. largely due to the reviews I read on Houzz…read more Background and what worked - The project was for a master bedroom to be redesigned in terms of furniture and soft furnishings only. It was completed largely on time with most of the delays only due to furniture delivery from overseas. About roughly 15% (of value) of the furniture recommended by the firm actually met the aesthetic and practical requirements of the room. What did not work - I felt the design work lacked creativity and fell short in practical as well as aesthetic considerations. It also was an unpleasant surprise that most of the initial budget for design, development and implementation was used up in the design stage itself given the quantity and quality of output. In their initial presentation I was shown two largely similar design themes of one monochromatic look. Since this was my first time using an interior design firm, I trusted them that the subtleties would lie in say - luxurious texture or use of unique materials to justify the hiring of an experienced designer. Maybe there would be an aha! down the line. Practical considerations were communicated to them such as its a bedroom therefore the curtain treatments should block the light, the bed should be solidly made etc. Aesthetic considerations were also communicated such as nicer finishes were needed, furniture should have something special in terms of design etc. Otherwise why hire somebody ?! Their actual design picks were pedestrian and fell short of expectations. Consequently I ended up doing the bulk of the research as well as visiting local showrooms to find the right furniture (roughly 70% of value). Some other smaller pieces of furniture that I did leave to them to decide and purchase I am currently looking to donate (15% of value). Returning does not seem to be an easy option through them. The curtains installed made the room look like a hospital room. They let in all the early morning light that we get in the Northeast making sleep difficult. An odd episode with window darkening drapes proved that they did not work with the customized drapes already installed. Now I have replaced them all at additional expense. Unfortunately truthful feedback and questions on invoice amounts led to a breakdown in communication early on. I am very disappointed with their work and am now correcting their design mistakes as I don't want to have to live in one.

They were very thorough and had a lot of reference material we could look at to help us narrow in on our vision. Both Brad and Kendra asked us a lot of questions of what we were looking to achieve and through our input were able to come up with a final look we were absolutely thrilled with! They were very responsive and quick to follow up and came up with multiple alternate ideas when we were unsure about something. Overall we were most happy with the design and color choices that perfectly matched what we had pictured in the back of our minds. They are very flexible whether you're a person who love every minutia of choice or want to throw caution to the wind and let them use their imagination to come up with a design! We would strongly recommend them if you want a unique design or vision that has yet to be discovered!

Whitney is a true partner in the design process who seeks to understand, listens, and interprets your needs and vision into truly special pieces that coordinate beautifully into your lifestyle and make your space feel complete. My partner and I had a 2 bed 1 bath condo with items accumulated from IKEA and other randomness from our separate lives prior to living together. When we bought a 5 bed 4.5 bath house, we left everything behind to start fresh! Unfortunately, after vetting 10+ designers, disappointing in-store design consultants at Crate & Barrel, Pottery Barn, and Jordan's, and a failed attempt with Havenly (virtual consultants), I bought the necessities on my own for our empty house with baby #2 arriving soon! On maternity leave, I got new local recommendations via Facebook, where a realtor pointed me toward Oliver James Interiors. Whitney's aesthetic, proposal options, and process were a great fit from the start. She took copious notes some comments I even forgot about until she explained why she chose a particular material my toddler couldn't damage, hid something I didn't like, or matched something I loved but didn't know how to make it work. I was most surprised with the wall art that really nailed our style because art is so personal and hard to describe (we'd never owned any, so she could only go off of "we like/don't like this but not sure why"). Whitney really put so much thought into each and every item she recommended, even the smallest functional items, like a suction shower towel rack when there was no other logical place, perfectly sized box to keep/hide our dog leash, and a patterned towel that tied in a bathroom painting with a couch pillow and office rug. She also could do so much on a tight budget she really knows how to prioritize the most important pieces that you'd want to splurge for good quality and ones that don't need to break the bank for their function. My favorites: a piece of art in my home office that makes me feel happy and ready to start my work day, a classic and soft duvet cover, unique lamps that lend a special touch to the bedroom, an entryway mirror with a striped boning frame, a statement clock that ties everything together in our open-concept first floor, a super-comfy bedroom chaise, ...I could go on... With regard to Whitney's process, she's very friendly, patient, and observant. We'd go into depth reviewing design boards why something worked, what we might want from another option so everyone was confident and excited to place the orders. As a Project Manager, I like to analyze a ton of options and see how one thing ties into everything else this is where Whitney was a saint! I would ask for additional options, measurements, time to review with family, usually to just end up selecting the thing Whitney recommended in the first place! I would also ask about things I liked but wasn't sure if it would work and she always offered the best advice without making me feel like it was a silly suggestion. Trust me, take her advice, she knows what she's doing! With the supply chain madness, Whitney has also been really on top of monitoring inventory for when to place orders or delivery tracking, even offering alternatives when items were really delayed. She also handled a few returns quickly and easily, including one that we had to return twice (and got a personal guarantee it would arrive in good condition the third time!). As you can tell, I'm a huge fan. Whitney found things I never would have, and I didn't have to spend hundreds of hours of my own time for results that are 'fine' but maybe not cohesive or balanced or outlast trends. I literally saved myself money by using Oliver James Interiors, not just because of the incredible finds and insider discounts, but because of what my personal time (and sanity) is worth. See attached design boards for proof I can't recommend Whitney and Oliver James Interiors enough!
